1 Mr. Tickle 1971 Mr. Tickle\\\'s story begins with him in bed and making himself breakfast without getting up because of his \\\"extraordinarily long arms\\\". He then decides that it is a tickling sort of day and so goes around town tickling people - a teacher, a policeman, a greengrocer, a station guard, a doctor, a butcher and a postman. The book ends with a warning that Mr. Tickle could be lurking around your doorway, waiting to tickle you. 2 Mr. Greedy 1971 One day, while exploring a gigantic room, Mr Greedy was caught by a giant and the giant forced him to eat all of the dinner on his plate. He appears in the book of the same name as well as several other books, including Little Miss Chatterbox and Little Miss Contrary. 3 Mr. Happy 1971 Mr Happy has quite a simplistic story, as do most of the other characters. It involved him discovering Mr. Miserable and teaching him, bit by bit, to be happy. Mr. Miserable is the exact spitting image of Mr Happy, except for the fact he frowned rather than smiled. He did not have a book of his own. Mr Happy probably appeared in more other Mr Men and Little Miss stories than any other character. He is seen in Mr. Rude\\\'s story, as well as Little Miss Magic, Little Miss Helpful and more. 4 Mr. Nosey 1971 Mr Nosey cannot help but to poke his nose into other people\\\'s business which the people of Tiddletown do not like one bit.

But his sneezing ends up saving the day. 6 Mr. Bump 1971 Poor Mr. Bump - he’s always covered in bandages. He just can’t avoid bumping into things.

Now our bumping beauty spends his time wandering around the orchard, and knocking all the apples off the trees. 7 Mr. Snow 1971 The story of Mr. Snow, the snowman is a heart-warming Yuletide tale of an over busy Father Christmas who choosing Mr Snow to help him deliver presents to the children. 8 Mr. Messy 1972 Mr. Neat and Mr. Tidy turned Mr. Messy’s life around and made him neat and tidy! The two men “brushed, swept, polished and scrubbed” his house until it sparkled.

Going nightmare is a shopping for hapless shopkeepers; and street down the walking is very drivers for hazardous. 10 Mr. Silly 1972 As a resident of Nonsenseland, Mr. Silly was plain silly with his idea for the Nonsense Cup by painting the red leaves of the tree in the City Square green awarded him not only the coveted trophy, but also the silly respect of the King. 11 Mr. Uppity 1972 Mr Uppity is probably the most stuck-up, snootiest, richest, most rude man in the whole world. And so it follows that he is not very popular. Thankfully our little friends the goblins take an interest in Mr Uppity, and use their magic powers to frighten him into behaving like a decent person. 12 Mr. Small 1972 He’s as cute as ickle pickle, and probably just as tasty. Mr. Small is, unsurprisingly, the smallest of the Mr. Men. He lives in a house underneath a daisy, at the bottom of Mr. Robinson’s garden.

He can\\\'t remember a thing. 15 Mr. Jelly (Also published as Mr. Nervous) 1976 Mr Jelly is scared of everything - even his own shadow! He is famous for blowing things out of all proportions, and being absolutely terrified by the slightest noise. 16 Mr. Noisy 1976 Mr. Noisy slammed doors and clumped down the hill; and even when he was asleep, his snore could be mistaken for a herd of elephants. He changed his ways when the residents pretended they couldn’t hear him. Eventually Mr. Noisy got so fed up of not being heard, he succumbed to their plan and began to whisper. 17 Mr. Lazy 1976 Mr Lazy lies in bed most of day. He only wakes up to yawn!

He drives about in his little shoe car making people laugh. He performed his unique act of amusing magic at the zoo, which was closed due to all the animals having colds. Good old Mr. Funny pulled funny faces at the elephant, the lion, the bear, and the giraffe, and left them in fits of giggles. 19 Mr. Mean (also published as Mr. Stingy) 1976 Mr Mean lived on his own, doesn\\\'t have any friends, and a wizard is always checking up on him. 20 Mr. Chatterbox 1976 Mr. Chatterbox brings about his own downfall when he decides to buy a new hat.

Luckily, the superbly named Dr. Makeyouwell gives him a pair of tiny red boots. But being Mr. Man land, they aren’t ordinary boots. These boots are extremely heavy, and keep Mr. Bounce’s feet firmly on the ground. But the best thing about Mr. Bounce is the noise he makes when he hits the ground. 23 Mr. Muddle 1976 Poor muddled Mr. Muddle. He can’t do anything right. He’s only too happy to lend a hand, but instead, usually ends up making the situation worse. Ask him to push and he’ll pull. Ask him to pick something up, and he’ll put it down. But the clever people of Seatown realised that the way to get him to do the right thing, is to ask him to do the opposite. 24 Mr. Dizzy 1976 Poor Mr. Dizzy is the laughing stock of Cleverland. He’s not very bright; and all his neighbours delight in making him look stupid. When Mr. Dizzy drinks the water from the wishing well, he magically becomes intelligent; and is able to outwit the pig and the elephant who had both made him look silly earlier. And it just goes to prove that if clever people can be confused by nice but dim Mr. Dizzy, then they should do it. 25 Mr. Impossible 1976 Mr Impossible is able to read backwards, upside down, hanging from the light shade whilst juggling with eggs. 26 Mr. Strong 1976 Mr Strong is so strong that you can barely believe it.

No one can hear him, and everything scares him there. Luckily for him, Mr Happy comes to the rescue, and finds him a far more suitable life and job. 30 Mr. Rush 1978 Mr Rush is the fastest person in the world, and he shows it by always being in a hurry. The trouble is that he goes so fast that he doesn\\\'t get anything done properly, that is until he gets his ideal job... A Postman! 31 Mr. Tall 1978 Mr. Tall is one of the luckiest Mr. Men. It takes him just four minutes to walk 40 miles; he can step over trees; and he can dangle his feet in the sea whilst sitting on the edge of a cliff. But Mr. Tall is gloomy about his long legs. Luckily, Mr. Tickle, Mr. Nosey and Mr. Greedy are on hand to tell him that over proportioned body parts can be a benefit. 32 Mr. Worry 1978 Mr Worry practically worries on anything & everything. 33 Mr. Nonsense 1978 Mr. Nonsense sleeps in a rowing boat, in his house, which is up a tree.
